IMO it would take too long to get a V8 Bronco out with the threat of CAFE snapping back in 2030 or so.

Would make a good Edge replacement 😛

Also keep in mind that the F-150 hybrid is rated at 430 horsepower and 570 lb-ft of torque, so I'm guessing they might be hitting the practical limits for torque output in the 10R transmission too.

If anything it would lead to quick and easy things that can be turned back down like selling more V6 Broncos or 2 door Broncos. That is the first thing that pops into my head.

in NJ we are looking at 20% monthly increase in our electrical rates, but apparently their is some sort of offset so it isn't as high. https://newjerseymonitor.com/2025/06/18/new-jersey-utilities-to-cut-60-from-electric-bills-to-offset-controversial-price-spike/ Its downright stupid along with the cancellation of the off shore wind mill program they had, not sure how they plan on making up the shortcomings in power generation in state either.

Yeah that is what I thought also, just makes you wonder what product they are planning on building in the EU, apparently the Capri and Explorer aren't doing too hot sales wise and they have a ton of extra production space with no new product to fill it, from what we know.

I wonder what engine they are using in the EREV-the power numbers are down quite a bit vs the 1.5 3 cyc Ecoboost.

Ford COO Kumar Galhotra Says Increase In Recalls Part Of The Plan

What If The Next Generation Ford Escape Came From Spain?

it doesn't really matter-any repair over 5K for a car that is out of warranty is more or less a major financial event that would basically force the owner to get a new vehicle, since the vast majority of people can't afford a one time hit that easily.

Another one Ford recalls over 694,000 SUVs in US after year-long fuel leak probe I just checked my Wife's BS and it doesn't seem like is affected by it but it was also a later production 2024

Is the Toyota more aerodynamic/smaller frontal area then the Nautilus though? That would account for why it does better at higher speeds MPG wise then the Nautilus. A larger/heaver vehicle would also suffer around town due to needing more power/torque to move it from a stop then a smaller vehicle.

Going by the interior (the C2 style arm rest/center console) it will be roughly the same size as an Escape or Edge...I'm assuming it will be ever so slightly smaller then a 4 door Bronco-in the 185 inch range.
